Kerry and Mayo minors want to be curtain raisers

KERRY and Mayo have asked Croke Park’s GAC to bring their All-Ireland Minor football semi-final forward a week to August 28.

Kerry and Mayo minors want to be curtain raisers

They are scheduled to meet the following Sunday, but believe it makes more sense to play as a curtain-raiser to the All-Ireland SFC semi-final at Croke Park involving counties from their provinces.

The other minor semi-final between Down and Offaly is slated as a curtain raiser to the August 28th All-Ireland SFC semi-final, but discussions are likely on a possible switch of venue for that game. One solution is to play the Down v. Offaly MFC semi on September 4th, ahead of the second of the senior semi-finals involving Ulster and Leinster counties.
